Ask a Tech Teacher is a group of tech teachers who are passionate about sharing their knowledge with others. All of us:
- have at least five years experience in tech ed
- have taught or are teaching
- are interesting in authentically using technology in their lives, classes, dreams
- are high-energy
- are problem-solvers. No problem is unsolvable–it’s an opportunity for a new experience
If this sounds like you, join us as a volunteer. You’ll get an opportunity to:
- expand your PLN
- get published in one of the premiere tech ed blogs
- contribute to your chosen field
- take advantage of occasional opportunities for paid writing spots
Here’s what we look for:
- blog contributors
- lesson plan writers
- moderators for forums
- monthly participation
Article guidelines:
Here are a few guidelines for articles on Ask a Tech Teacher:
- about 750-1000 words in length. Think consumable over a cup of coffee rather than lunch
- links are fine, but must be resources, not to sell a product
- articles must be new, unpublished work (though you are free to republish it after it goes live on my blog)
- readers are about 90% educators, so consider them your audience as you write
- include a short bio of you that focuses on your tech ed creds, such as being a parent of a digital native
- I’m cautious of pictures so if you include any, make sure to provide the necessary permissions
BTW, right now, we are looking for articles on:
- 3D printing in the classroom
- Creating a student-run Genius Bar
- Homeschool and tech ed
- High School IT
- Google Classroom
- Specific digital tool that’s changed your classes
